Solana (SOL)

what an amazing cohort of winners. big congrats to all the builders and to the whole @solana eco

think it’s a good time to share my personal story.

i’m not a dev. never was. but this year i decided to stop watching from the sidelines and actually test my skills. so i jumped into @colosseum and started building.

my the idea didn’t come from others pitch deck or some market gap. it came from a very real problem: i wanted a simple way to save money for my daughter. a place where the funds could easily be onramped, grow, and be there for her when she needs it, without me babysitting a chart every single day.

that became @jarfixyz, a consumer focused savings app on solana (yeah, not a 100th launchpad @mert )

i started with nothing but that idea and a personal pain. and then i went through every single building stage:
•learned to deploy anchor programs
•figured out best RPCs, on-ramp services, PDAs, APY solutions
•turned a rough idea in my head into a real, working product

and you know what? i feel like a winner too.

not because i walked away with a prize (in fact i haven’t lol) . but because i learned an absolutely insane amount in just a few weeks, things i never believed i could understand. and because along the way i met so many brilliant builders (hi @SuperteamUKR , @Ferno_ag, @JET_EUROPA_ @mattdgn , @SarthiB7) , who carry the same energy and actually want to help.

that’s the real prize. the skills stay with me. the people stay with me.

everyone wins when more of us start building.

onwards

OpenAI released three models of GPT5.6

Sol (Sun), Terra (Earth), Luna (Moon)

OpenAI's naming is really interesting, all three are crypto coins, the latter two have already crashed to zero because of algorithmic stablecoins 😂, the remaining one Sol—should the two companies consider deep cooperation? https://t.co/pABVG2EByu
